I have had the opportunity to read the German Ambassador's note to the Porte regarding the persecution of the Armenians. It mainly suggests that, even if in some measures against the Armenian population in some regions are justified due pure military reasons, this measures have had reached such proportions and have happened in such a manner that Turkey risks, especially among the neutral nations, and foremost in America, evoke a particularly negative opinion. Furthermore, through the unlawfulness and excesses of the Turkish governmental bodies, the door is opened for the intervention of Europe and its interference I Turkey's inner affairs as soon as the war ends. Additionally, in the note it is stressed that, through the dispersing of the able Armenian population, Germany's own economic interests in Turkey have been suffering, as well as on the other hand the humanitarian institutions in some places in Turkey are been obstructed in their activities.

The German Ambassador has verbally told me that completed the note by clarifying for the Porte that, if the Christians in Turkey are persecuted unjustifiably, Germany will on its own part can never take the Muslim's side against the Christians, as well as it can not financially support a state which on its own executes similar persecutions on its territory.
